According to the MIT Airline Data Project, American Airlines controlled 15.5% of the domestic market during a recent year. A ran

dom sample of 125 domestic passengers that year was selected. Using the normal approximation to the binomial distribution, what is the probability that 10 or fewer passengers from this sample were on American Airline flights

Answer:

0.0143

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to get the probability of the passenger being an American, which is 15.5% = 15.55÷100

= 0.155

Which is the probability P

The sample size n is = 155

To get the probability of the person is not on the flight, which is q

Where q is 1-P

That's

q =1 - p= 0.845

P(X < A) = P(Z < (A - mean)/standard deviation)

Our mean is given as np ( population size × probability

= 125 x 0.155

= 19.375

And the standard deviation is given as = √npq

= √ (125 x 0.155x 0.845)

=√16.3719

= 4.0462

P(10 or lesser passengers that are on the American Airline flights) is given as = P(X \ 10)

=P(Z<{(A- mean) ÷standard deviation }

We have as

= P(Z < (10.5 - 19.375)/4.0462)

= P(Z < -2.19)

= 0.0143 as the probability that 10 or fewer passengers from this sample were on American Airline flights.

Answer:

0.0143

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to use the binomial distribution to calculate the probability that 10 or fewer passengers from a sample of MIT data project sample were on American airline flights.

We proceed as follows;

The probability that a passenger was an American flight is 15.5%= 15.55/100 = 0.155

Let’s call this probability p

The probability that he/she isn’t on the flight, let’s call this q

q =1 - p= 0.845

Sample size, n = 155

P(X < A) = P(Z < (A - mean)/standard deviation)

Mean = np

= 125 x 0.155

= 19.375

Standard deviation = √npq

= √ (125 x 0.155x 0.845)

= 4.0462

P(10 or fewer passengers were on American Airline flights) = P(X \leq 10)

= P(Z < (10.5 - 19.375)/4.0462)

= P(Z < -2.19)

= 0.0143

Answer:

It is right

Step-by-step explanation:

square all sides

we have 16, 32, 48

add the two shortest sides, which equal the third side

the triangle works with the pythagorean theorem, so of course it is right :)

Answer:

A. f and h

Step-by-step explanation:

For a linear function the First Differences of the y-values must be a constant. i.e. if we take the difference between any two consecutive y values or values of f(x) it should be the constant. For this rule to work, x values must change by the same number every time, which is true for all three given functions.

For function f:

The values of f(x) are: 5,8,11,14

We can see the difference in consecutive two values is a constant i.e. 3, so the First Difference is the same. Hence, function f is a linear function.

For function g:

The values of g(x) are: 8,4,16,32

We can see the difference among two consecutive values is not a constant. Since the first differences are not the same, this function is not a linear.

For function h:

The values of h(x) are: 28, 64, 100, 136

We can see the difference among two consecutive values is a constant i.e. 36. Therefore, function h is a linear function.
